    Where stores windows 10 the user info inside the registry


    Hello:
    I am new in this forum and I want to resolve one problem. I have some apps (games) that save some files (save games) inside my documents dir (others in appdata or in C:\programdata). All that I want is change this path to inside game dir and with an app packer software (enigma virtual box), this is possible. At least in windows XP was enough virtualizing the registry key "user shell folders" but in windows 10 the same procedure don't work. I think that the key "folder descriptions" have something to do on it but I don't make it to work. Are there anything that fails?
    Thanks.

    PD: I asked the same in Enigma VB forums and I got no answer.

    :)

    Strange Windows 10 User Account issue.

    Have you cleaned up registry? User lists are saved there too.

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    As you may already know, Windows 10 (as well as Windows 8) allow you to log in with a valid Microsoft account, instead of creating a local account that only works on your machine. However, you may prefer to keep a local account for privacy reasons. If you do, though, some Windows 10 features—like Cortana—may not work. Despite the default behavior, the Windows 10 Store is not one of them. You can still log in to your Microsoft account for just the Store without switching to a full Microsoft account. The process, however, is not terribly obvious. To do so, follow these steps:

    • Launch the Store from your Start menu.
    • Click the user icon next to the search box.
    • Click “Sign-in” from the menu that appears.
    • Choose “Microsoft account” and log in like normal.
    • When the “Make it yours” box appears do not enter your password. Instead, click “Sign in to just this app instead.”
